Technology partners

Concurrent Computer

The RedHawk Linux RTOS is an industry-standard, real-time operating system for x86-based platforms. The open source RedHawk operating system is fully compatible with Red Hat Enterprise Linux, and it leverages the power of multi-processing, multi-core technology. That makes it especially suitable for challenging server-class and embedded applications that require low latency.

All Dolphin software fully support RedHawk, and the combined products offer the lowest latency, lowest jitter real-time networking solution available with Linux.

IntervalZero RTX/RTX64 is the only software solution architected as a high-performance real-time extension to control Microsoft Windows. RTX is proven in thousands of demanding applications providing enhanced performance, control, scalability combined with unmatched dependability for: industrial automation; military/aerospace; test and measurement equipment; robotics; and many other industries while reducing system costs and speeding time to market.

Wind River

Customers using VxWorks now have access to the lowest latency network available. Dolphin’s PCI Express network delivers latencies as low as 540 nanoseconds from memory to memory. This outstanding latency is combined with features such as reflective memory, reliable data delivery, and high data through. Dolphin’s solution includes a comprehensive software API for developing shared memory applications. This SISCI API enables quick development of applications based on PCI Express.

Research partners and projects

Dolphin and Simula have entered into a strong collaboration to research and develop software and hardware to realize advanced unified PCI Express networking solutions. The main focus is to integrate compute accelerators (GPUs, FPGAs, Intel Phi) and storage components with optimized PCIe networking stacks and protocols.

The activities are supported by the Norwegian Research Council, and there are currently 5 master grade students and 1 PhD student working on the project.

The Department of Informatics at the University of Oslo takes lead in a new Center for Research-Driven Innovation (SFI) which aims at developing novel technologies to significantly improve our ability to extract and exploit information from enormous data stores in practice. Dolphin is one of the technology partners in the project. More information about the SIRIUS project.
